    Alligator

    ★★★★½

    An oversized sewage gator with the power of teleportation commits a series of offenses that, for some reason, are subject to the jurisdiction of the police and not any type of animal control. And the hairline jokes were an uncalled-for but necessary addition to the stew. Probably the best Jaws parody ever.

  • Prisoners

    ★★★★½

    “Alex Jones has the IQ of a 10 year old.” Unintentionally great quote from an intentionally thrilling mystery film.

    Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny

    ★★★★½

    this movie has everything you could ever need:

    * meat loaf
    * dio
    * tenacious d
    * dave grohl as satan
    * tim robbins as a mysterious villain with a dastardly secret
    * lee
    * weed
    * paul f tompkins turning into satan as played by david grohl
    * amy poehler as surly waitress with black eye
    * kg's tits

    so it is the greatest and best movie ever made!

  • Vampires in America

    Vampires in America

    ★★½

    Very split on this one. Either the most genius parody of supernatural hunting reality shows ever made, or the most unhinged unironic exemplar of the same. Bonkers, hilarious, baffling, and keen to contradict itself with every new piece of “information” and “evidence” that is “revealed” about the “American vampire threat.” Godspeed you, Marcel and Eric.
